Lawrence LiuCompanies must fundamentally review the existing balance of structure, control and distribution of authority versus the ease of communication and information access. In nearly every organisation there are ample opportunities for removing structure and control without introducing additional risk or compromising the operational efficiency. Pushing more authority towards the lower layers of the enterprise and creating/allowing additional communication platforms or channels will compensate this removal of structure and control and will create opportunities for interesting Web 2.0-style "side-effects".
Unfortunately, these are complex exercises. While this is a very reasonable approach for any forward-looking company, it certainly is not without impact for the individuals concerned. Especially on the middle-management level, the impact can be devastating. But do we have an alternative? -

Bertrand DuperrinSo, the main problem in the past Enterprise 2.0 debate is likely a lack of systems thinking. We do not look at the complete picture. We do not articulate clearly enough how causes and effects are linked to each other. Consequently, our view on the phenomenon remains incomplete and we do not see some of the obvious reasons that make that Enterprise 2.0 is not the homerun we were hoping for.
